• Ep. 258 Nervous System Showers, Breathwork & Prepping Your Body for Pregnancy
    Mar 11 2026
    In this episode I am chatting about one of the most overlooked foundations of preconception health: your nervous system.
    So often, the focus is entirely on hormones, supplements, and lab testing — but your nervous system is the lens through which your body interprets safety. And safety is essential for optimal hormone signaling, ovulation, and creating an environment supportive of pregnancy.
    I’m sharing some of my favorite simple, practical tools I’m personally prioritizing in this season, and with many of my preconception clients, to help shift the body out of chronic stress and into a more regulated, resilient state.These are not complicated protocols — they’re small, consistent signals of safety to your body.
    If you’re in a preconception season, or simply working toward better hormone balance, these practices can be powerful additions to your foundation.

  • Ep. 257 Red Light Therapy: What Actually Works (And What’s Just a Red Bulb)
    Mar 4 2026
    Red light therapy is everywhere right now — from skincare devices to sauna rooms to $20 bulbs online.But not all “red light” is created equal.In this episode of Alpha Health and Wellness Radio, I’m breaking down the real science behind:
    • Red LED light
    • Near-infrared (NIR) light
    • Incandescent red heat bulbs
    Because they are not the same thing — and they do very different things in the body.If you’ve been wondering whether you need a panel, if a sauna bulb is enough, or which wavelengths actually matter for hormones, skin, recovery, or thyroid health — this episode will clear it up.
    Red light (630–660 nm)
    Best for skin, collagen, acne, surface-level healing.Near-infrared (810–880 nm)
    Penetrates deeper — ideal for joints, muscle recovery, brain health, thyroid, and systemic inflammation.Incandescent red bulbs
    Primarily provide heat and circulation benefits — not precise mitochondrial stimulation.If you’re going to invest, combining red + near-infrared wavelengths gives you both surface and deep tissue benefits.

  • Ep. 255 Beef Organs, Real Food & Raising Nourished Families
    Feb 18 2026
    In this episode of Alpha Health and Wellness Radio, I sit down with my friend Chelsea, founder of a locally sourced, grass-fed beef organ supplement made right here in the Finger Lakes.We break down why organ meats were once considered sacred foods in traditional cultures — and why they may be one of the most nutrient-dense tools we’re overlooking in modern wellness.If you’ve ever been curious about liver, heart, or kidney but don’t know where to start (or you’re not exactly excited to cook them), this conversation is for you.
    • Why organ meats are considered nature’s multivitamin
    • The difference between grass-fed, locally sourced organs vs. conventional
    • Who may benefit most from beef organ support
    • How soil quality and sourcing matter
    • Why nose-to-tail eating supports sustainability and mineral balance
    • How to incorporate ancestral eating into busy family life
    • Simple, nourishing meals the whole family will actually enjoy
    We also talk practically about what it looks like to prioritize nutrient-dense meals without overcomplicating your life — because real wellness has to work for families.Chelsea shares her heart behind creating a product that supports local farmers while making ancestral nutrition accessible and convenient.If you’re looking to build meals around protein, minerals, and real food foundations — this episode will give you clarity and confidence.
    Little Fisher Farmhouse based in Fishers, New York, was founded by functional nutrition practitioner, ancestral food blogger, and food-as-medicine advocate Chelsea Rose and her husband, Max. Together, they created Offally Good Grass-Fed Organs: a whole-food supplement originally crafted to support Chelsea's body during her childbearing years.
    After experiencing how good they felt, they knew they had to share these little capsules of vitality with others. These nutrient dense capsules feed the mitochondria- supporting energy, mental clarity and inviting you to feel and live optimally. Max and Chelsea are deeply devoted to creating a whole-food supplement with small batch integrity, grounded in holistic farming practices and a deep respect for the interconnectedness of all life - honoring both the animal and the harvest.
    By utilizing nutrient-rich organ meats, we can help reduce waste in the harvesting process, ensuring the whole animal is valued and intentionally incorporated for its highest benefit.Website: littlefisherfarmhouse.com Email: littlefisherfarmhouse@gmail.com

  • Ep. 253 The FAM Method, Cycle Literacy & Home Birth w/ Carly Hartwig
    Feb 4 2026
    Carly Hartwig is a Holistic Reproductive Health Practitioner and a Certified Fertility Awareness Educator. She is passionate about empowering women to take control of their health and take charge of their wellness journeys with personalized, compassionate care. She brings balance to the low-tox world and educates people around a wide array of topics, ranging from environmental toxins to healthy hormones, and she will forever encourage women to advocate for themselves and require informed consent in every step of their healthcare journey. Carly is a self-proclaimed crunchy mom of 1 with another on the way!
    In this episode, we explore the Fertility Awareness Method (FAM) and how cycle tracking can be used for both pregnancy prevention and conception by understanding real-time hormonal patterns—not guesswork. We discuss what true cycle literacy looks like, common misconceptions around FAM, and why tracking biomarkers like basal body temperature and cervical fluid gives women more data, not more pressure. We also have an honest conversation about home birth—who it may be appropriate for, how proper screening and support matter, and why safety is about preparation, not location alone. This episode is for anyone curious about stepping into a more informed, intentional relationship with their cycle and birth experience—without fear, dogma, or extremes.

  • Ep. 252 Acne Scars, Hormonal Acne , Dry Skin + Barrier Health
    Jan 28 2026
    In this episode, I’m walking through my current skin routine—the topicals I’m using and loving for acne scars, barrier repair, dry skin, and calming hormonal breakouts. We talk about why gentle, supportive products matter more than aggressive “fix-it” formulas and how I choose topicals that work with the skin, not against it. I also share simple, realistic tips to support lymphatic flow for hormonal acne—because congestion, inflammation, and poor drainage play a much bigger role in breakouts than most people realize. And of course, we connect the dots between gut health and skin, explaining how digestion, detox pathways, and inflammation show up on your face even when your routine looks “clean.” If your skin feels stuck in a flare cycle, this episode will help you simplify, support, and heal more strategically.

  • Ep. 251 You Can’t Regulate What’s Still Under Attack: Nervous System Support Is a Two-Way Street
    Jan 21 2026
    Nervous system regulation isn’t just about breathwork, cold exposure, or calming rituals. Those tools matter—but they’re only half the equation. In this episode, we break down why true nervous system support is a two-way street: regulating the system and removing the internal stressors that keep the body stuck in survival mode. Dr. Halie talks about how things like gut infections, parasites, mold exposure, chronic inflammation, and nutrient deficiencies quietly drive fight-or-flight, making regulation practices feel ineffective or short-lived. If you’re doing “all the right things” but still feel wired, tired, or inflamed, this episode explains why—and what a more honest, root-cause approach to nervous system healing actually looks like.
